My thoughts on this is that unless ISPs start to announce what "one
customer" is, this is pretty hard. It's a problem in IPv4, but even more
so in IPv6.
Wouldn't it help a lot if there was a way to publish that "in this /42,
there is one customer per /56, and in this other /42, there is one
customer per /48"?
How can that be done via DNS (if that is still a favourable mechanism to
distribute information like this)? Whois is not a good way...
